MONTREAL. Sept. 12.-The Rev "Abbe" Che
bert, resident of Montreal. was indicted before
the Queens bench, Saturday, charge OF
assauting q young girl. The priest, through
his counsel, pleaded that his passions were too
strong to resist temptation. The girls mother
used to sweep out the abbes house, and having
been taken i'll, she sent note to ask that her
daughter should supersede her in the work. The
able returned the note with the remark. Better
not send your daughter but as the mother was
too i'll, the girl was sent TO the house, and the
assault was committed. Priest Chebert has an
extraordinary history. He came here from
France q few years ago, with good credentials,
and was Entrusted by the government with the
charge of their art school. He is clever artist,
and succeeded well for some time, until he was
charged with assauiting tho servant in his house.
He entered her room, and his plea was that he
wished to get sketch of sleeping venus"
The recorder fined him 800 and the government.
discharged him. He disowned by the
church and disappeared until the present time.
Chebert is handsome man, fifty years of age.

THE New York Socialists who were snubhed
by the United Labor party and excluded from
the convention, have adopted the name of
the Progressive Labor party and decided to
call State convention. Speakers will be
sent out to organize the party in the towns
and cities throughout the State and dssemi-
nate literature among the farmers. They
will have their labor for their pains. The
farmers of this country are the most conserv-
alive class of citizens we have, and the least
accessible to communistic or revolutionary
ideas of any kind. The Socialists will find
the farmers have no use for them.
